Qt Mobile Development for Nokia Devices - Mobile UI design (part 2/3)
summary
Compares Qt UI options for Symbian: QWidgets give quick native look but limited customization; the animation system uses QPropertyAnimation and groups plus easing curves (example: blur radius animated in parallel with geometry) and it works but can clash with layout managers. For truly custom mobile UIs the recommended path is QGraphicsView or Qt Quick/QML (demonstrated by a traffic‑light and a CD‑cover app, and the Float social app using GPU acceleration). Notes practical constraints: target Qt 4.6 vs 4.7 and Ovi Store compatibility, and minimal C++ glue (QDeclarativeView) to load QML.
